Alphabetical order error

(1/1)

AquaStreak:
On the manuals page http://www.rockbox.org/manual.shtml, I notice that the players are (somewhat) alphabetized. However, I noticed iRiver came before iPod.

Now, last time I did my alphabet, it went "...N, O, P, Q, R, S, T..."

So, why is iRiver BEFORE iPod?

Thanks.

Llorean:
Same reason the e200 is before the c200, and the iPod Video is before the iPod Nano. It's not in strict alphabetical order at all.

Like one of my former bosses said in a meeting:

"There is an order, you just don't know what it is"

:)

Although it doesn't explain the order that everything appears in, the iRiver H1x0 port occurred before the iPod port. Then when other iRiver ports came along, they were grouped with the previous ones, leaving the iPods in a group after the iRivers. I've no idea how the iAudios ended up where they did though ;)

Chronon:
The position of the Toshiba Gigabeat F is also inconsistent between the manuals page and the current build page.  It's something that should probably be made consistent at some point (i.e. a particular ordering scheme should be chosen).  But it's hardly a critical issue at the moment, as a short unsorted list is about as easy to use as a sorted one.
